Okay, so, actually in this case, "both sides have the fault" is correct. Because the two sides are Musk and Hitler (insert <it's the same picture> meme), and the fault is censorship.
Musk (pot) is accusing (calling) Hitler (kettle) of overt censorship (black), while he himself is in fact doing the exact same thing.
This.
Can’t believe it needed this level of explanation really.
It's also not a good picture for this phrase, because both the pot and kettle are black. It makes sense if the kettle is reflective, and the cast iron pot speaking to the kettle only sees its reflection, so the kettle looks black to the pot, when it's really reflective.
No, the entire point is that they are both black or in this case both Hitler and musk apply heavy censorship.
